The past two decades have been jampacked with multiple movie franchises focused on teens stuck in some kind of game-based dystopia where their lives are at risk and everyone is dressed in gray. Along with The Hunger Games and Divergent, The Maze Runner is definitely on the list of the most well-known within that genre.
The Maze Runner definitely raises some questions though. Like did they REALLY try everything to reach the top of those walls? How much time did these people spend naming things? How do they know what grievers are if they only come out in the maze at night, and nobody has survived a night in the maze? Do any questions get answered in this movie?
To answer all these questions, check out the pitch meeting that led to The Maze Runner.

That "OOooyooOO" somehow exactly captured how these YA writers think teens react to a girl in a movie/novel.
Honestly, in my experience that is the way most people react to a girl in a life.
@@funkoxen fr has OP ever met teenage guys?
well they usually don't say it out loud but it does summarize it pretty well lol
It's a pretty accurate rendition of a lot of males meeting a female
Same in a gaming lobby lol
Ryan: "Do these kids just sit around naming things all day???"
Also Ryan: Series of videos where guys sit around naming things all day
He doesn't want the competition
They don't even name each other
That's what all the MazeRunner kids did for work when they left the maze and grew up.
"I decided"
I mean humans do sit around naming things all the time
The reaction he had to all the names they have is so genuine I can't help but relate
A good movie of course doesn't require much exposition to introduce new terms, they're written and directed in a way where, when the term is introduced, it's obvious what it applies to, and then will stick with a bit of repetition. I didn't see this movie so I don't know how well they did it.
The facepalm is on point
i didnt even remember that all things had names tho hahahaha
@@mkvv5687 did they even make mention of all the things that Ryan pointed out in the movie? I only remember a select few things that he mentioned haha.
@@JerryMcB3rry Right. They introduce new terms, but forgot the repetition part. And the audience is basically, "Well, if it wasn't worth repeating, it's not worth remembering."
Still a better design than the maze in Harry Potter, where the spectators apparently stared at hedges and a lake for several hours hoping their kids survive 😂
That's like saying a football and a baseball are the same just bc you throw both of them. The Maze Runner from start to finish (the whole movie) is about getting out of a maze and that movie, the kids, already had a head start from trying and trying. HP maze "run" was the last 25-30 mins of the movie. Can't compare the two. If HP made an entire movie about getting through their maze your head would explode
@@willywonka4690 they're not saying they're the same. They're comparing the two things
@@willywonka4690 Congratulations on the entirety with which you missed their point.
Yeah I am confused what the stands were for, did they have magical images showing what happened? I didn't see any
@@christophertaylor9100 they were for waiting, same with the underwater challenge with the evil mermaids (cus they aren't supposed to give away the secrets of the challenges to others so they can't see anything ever during the competition. Lololol now you know why there was only a few people spectating, cus it boring AF compared to the dragon match)
I think this is the first Pitch Meeting where we get both a 'get all the way off my back' and a 'hey shut up'.
AND we got a new 'moving on' catchphrase as well! Very exciting!
He also did that in both Thor: Love and Thunder and Don't Worry Darling Pitch Meetings.
Aww. New catchphrases are tight!
don’t forget “the continuing” lol
Scriptwriter Guy is a real innovator!
@@goodnesswhy did you hit your head to remember that?
I want that “oooOOOooeew” to be a new recurring gag whenever there’s a shoehorned love interest in a movie
The blank look on Writer Guy’s face after Producer Guy points out obvious plot holes in this movie was….ugh….tight!
Moving on without answering is super easy, barely an inconvenience!
Plot holes are tight!
The amount of meetings I've been to where I've seen those faces makes me want to drench myself in Pitch Meeting Chanel
They call it the tightening…
@@MikeDCWeld Oh Really?
I think that a divergent pitch meeting would be tight!
lol right. i seen the movies and i was like this is beyond movie stupid. like the end of the first movie i was like wtf? why did you let her go? why are you leaving? wtf are you doing??? you WON why are you acting like you lost. arrest her or kill her and tell everyone what happened. you have proof.
I converge.
I'm pretty sure he's already done it.
Can’t wait for the final headline to be about the final movie getting cancelled! I bet nobody has EVER watched the 3rd movie!
Pervert
I can’t wait for the day that Ryan will say “well actually it’s gonna be pretty difficult, quite the inconvenience”
he did this once, can't remember which pitch though
@@MrPhys It’s in the “Man of Steel” Pitch Meeting
Man of Steel
omggggg the multiverse
It should've been in the Rings of Power pitch meeting
For once Writer Guy was pinned down, if only for a very brief moment, until he invented "The continuing". This is very close to being Calvinball - well done RG!!
I love Calvinball!
Olly wolly pollywoggy ump bump fizz!
I once got someone to play Calvinchess with me. Lots of fun and irritation from him. I love chess but suck at it so making it into Calvingame was the only way. Also....I just rarely find people referencing Calvin and Hobbes anymore. Such a good comic.
Gotta respect a Calvinball reference 👊
Umm, "get all the way off my back about it," "because" "because the scene is over" "I'm a writer" "Whoopsie" & "shut up" are *_ALL_* "the continuing."
Gosh I can only imagine the amount of “Get all the way off my back”s Writer Guy is gonna need in order to pitch the next two movies in the series! XO
Yeah for real! That’s why I’ve been suggesting it to him for ages now 🤣
"The Continuing" and "yaa" novels... Ryan is really good at naming things.
I like how screen writer finds new ways to avoid producer's questions
A cameo from the naming department from Ryan’s other videos would have been tight.
Ohhh a very prolific naming department!
"Was it hard coming up with all these names for everything?"
"Nah, it was super easy, barely an inconvenience "
Not the same universe though. Contrary to popular belief.
@@huliniswhoiam the universe is a big place though...
It would have been super easy barely an inconvenience, to get the other Ryan from the naming department to be in the video. 😂
If I remember correctly, there are windows in the maze so you can see the greivers. That’s why nobody has survived in the maze during night, and people still know what happened
Was that more of a "book thing"?
@@samblack5313 bro its been like 5 years since ive seen the movie and maybe like 15 years since ive read the books lol i honestly have no idea.
@@samblack5313 DEFINITELY wasn't in the movie lol
I thought there were windows on their buildings, not the maze
That was not established in the movie at akl
I love how aggressive Screen Writer Guy is getting about having Producer Guy get off his back.
He actually turned southern about it this time which was definitely the best.
Wow wow wow ………..wow
He's gonna need you to get off his back about him being aggressive about the Producer Guy getting off his back.
I'm just waiting for him to do a back-flip, break the other guy's neck and save the day.
It'd be really weird if there was just a group of people all sitting around in a room all day just coming up with names for various things. Especially if they all looked alike.
It would never happen. That would just be... weird. Or not, who am I to judge. 🤔
@@danbasford7456 You are a Judge, I decided.
@@KipdoesStuff i also want that man to be a judge. but like, not just men but women too!!
@@Zenikai_ and the children too!!!
@@Depressed_until_dead yea yea yea. but like only on tv. so adults can laugh at kids trying to be adults.
2:45 in the books there's actually an explanation! There's a small window that's hidden away. it's just big enough to see the gievers without them seeing you. Newt takes Thomas to see it sometime in the first two days (it's been a really long time since I read the book, sorry!)
I thought that in the movie they said that they never saw the grievers but that they could hear them screach at night
Ryan ability to make any movie review hilarious is unmatched 😁
Having the ability to make any movie review hilarious is TIGHT!
It's easy when everything that comes out of hollywood is crap.
So true, the breakdown of every plot of every film imaginable is ridiculous. Think what the pitch meeting for The Sound of Music would be.
And with that finale
You mean his ability is TIGHT
With that ending in mind, I hope you do the Divergent series soon, considering that their plans to split the final book into two movies failed that they never finished the series.
I guess it is telling that I never realised the series was unfinished.
@@zuki9537 don’t forget the really horrific eugenics message in where the author makes it clear she thinks it’s a good thing.
Would love him to make fun of the premise where society is stratified by literal one note archetypes, and having multiple personality traits is considered special.
The story behind the movies failing is so interesting. Alleigent didn’t make enough so they were just going to do straight-to-TV movies, but the actors didn’t sign up for TV pay and refused to do it. Plus the fact that Alleigent was straight up the director’s fanfiction. They should’ve just made an original project if they hated the work they were adapting that much.
Maybe if they'd stuck to the plot of the second and third books they wouldn't have tanked so hard 😅
The Continuing actually sounds like an underrated YA novel.
Or another terrible M Night Shyamalan movie
Ryan George and Hallmark are the only two channels that can have the exact same storyline for every episode/movie and still be successful.
I'd like to add a third: Phineas and Ferb.
@@phoebegilliland8897, how fitting, since the (rarely heard) Ferb is voiced by that blondish kid at 0:35! 🥰
@@primmoore6232 Thomas Brodie-Sangster
@@phoebegilliland8897 Which came before Pitch Meetings. Idk Hallmark. But yeah Phineas and Ferb is GOAT.
It's because Ryan and Hallmark both accept one fact: the ending is a foregone conclusion, and there's no use pretending otherwise. We're here because we like predictability. The movie always winds up getting made, no matter how ridiculous its premise. The couple always finds their happily ever after, even if the whole world seems to be against them. Surprises are fun sometimes, but Hallmark is basically the cinematic equivalent of McD - safe, cheap and easy. AND you don't have to take a chance on an unknown variable that might let you down.
That ending was brilliant. Ryan George is a genius 😂
Best episode I’ve watched.
Legitimately laughed out loud at "Eyebrows." Well done, sir 🤣
Same😂
Oh some very distracting eyebrows!
I'm impressed with the CGI of Pitch Meeting; budget not wasted on the de-aging process. Neither of these guys seems to have aged too noticeably since Screenwriter Guy first pitched Star Wars, and that was like 40+ years ago. That is a long time to be pitching meetings, but they both still look incredible for what must be at least 60 or 70. The CGI makes them both look in their 30s.
You, 3 Teams Media, have won the internet for the day with this comment as far as I'm concerned.
Idiot. It's not CGI. Everyone knows they're immortal.
He did Dumbo so he's probably in his 90s
@@stretchdude4 Oh snap, you're right. I forgot about that one. I was thinking there was a pitch meeting older than Star Wars.
The "dumb bastard" caught me off guard, I think Screenwriter Guy is getting WAY too comfortable around Producer Guy in this working relationship
They are third cousins so he can get away with it.
It was 😂😂
Well, Screenwriter Guy's movies have grossed about a half a Trillion dollars by now, so his job is probably safe.
needs to check his privilege!
@@willvgo2950 Is that confirmed? I didn't knew that :o
i always felt like this movie was like if your mom said "we have Hunger Games at home"
It's Hunger Games for a bit smarter kids.
Wait.. But both of these movies are inconsistent garbage, hostile to logic and covered with plotholes.
The books were better than hunger games
Nah that was definitely divergent
@@inr9751 smarter lmao every young adults movies are dumb
That ending call to action is so simple yet so hilarious.
like and cement!
LOL! Glad you said something, almost didn't watch it.
It’s absolutely my favorite movie about maze running
Same
I'd have to agree, but there's gotta be a movie about maze running better than this one. Just too many to watch.
Nope. Labyrinth. But this one is a close 4th. :)
Surely one of the Mazerunning movies of all time
Agreed, though I hope that Ryan covers the next movies about maze running!
The pacing and timing of the back 'n forth is incredibly well done - super slick work Ryan!
superior ediing t
you know its a great day when there is a new pitch meeting
I know its a day when I wake up and its a day.
So true.
Couldn't say it better!!!!
@@VanillaBearMD3 So if I don't sleep, does that mean it'll never turn day?
It's always such a looong wait...regardless of how long or short time it was since the last one 🥴
My favorite part about this pitch meeting is how it perfectly calls out things that the book specifically did differently because it would make more sense without mentioning the book. Like literally half the things the movie does that make no sense make way more sense in the book because they are either done differently or are able to give more context lol
exactly! Not even going to get into how they just turned the second movie into a dumb zombie horror movie instead of following the actual book plot.
My personal favorites being that in the book Thomas incorrectly assumes that Grievers only come out at night to then be immediately corrected that they ALWAYS come out at night. The movie adapters apparently zoned out during that scene. Also the fact that Thomas got himself stung by a Griever because it had been established repeatedly in the book that going through the changing returned your memories to you, so it was a calculated risk to get more information. And he was comatose for 3 days, allowing the other Gladers to naturally exposit that the Grievers were clearly picking them off one at a time each day, explaining why they left immediately. How quintessentially Hollywood to take a super dramatic and solidly written story and inject it with nonsense to "fix it" for the silver screen.
@@HeadCannonPrime Yet they did the zombie scenes so well that the plot kept getting in the way. They could've had something interesting and they went nowhere with it.
I'm glad the books had an actual plot. I watched the first two movies, and I had no idea what was going on. Everything seemed haphazard and didn't seem to make any logical sense.
Yes that is what books do. There has never been a movie made that is as descriptive or as enjoyable as the book it is from. Not possible.
No way - I literally watched this movie again yesterday for the first time in 7 years and now you’ve uploaded a Pitch meeting? Uncanny, but I love it
Uncanny Pitch Meetings are tight!
I have seen the movie years ago and watched the sequels only a few days ago xD
why would u subject your eyes to garbage?
there are like.....4 or 5 of those things that are all the same and all bad....maze runner, enders game, hunger games....etc
@@ipraytovodka I know this is a bit confusing to you, but you probably took a wrong turn.
The "I hate every movie others like" comment section is down the road, after about 12 kilometers you go right and then follow the road another 5 and a half kilometers.
Im still waiting on a The Day After Tomorrow pitch meeting. It's perfect
He'll get to it on Sunday.
@@markuhler2664 THAT’s the name of the MOVIE!!
the reason they didn’t climb up the maze (at least in the book) is bc wckd’s mind wipe thing also let them control certain parts of their brain, so they see the walls as far bigger than they are and when they start climbing their brains start telling them the ivy doesn’t go any higher. the only question i have abt that is how newt managed to jump off of one of the walls to try to commit su1cide if they can’t reach the top
He tries to jump from the ground into a pitch if I'm remembering correctly.
Umm, to answer your question: BECAUSE THE WRITING IS RET*RDED. You should have come to that conclusion two lines into writing your own comment
I see you tried to run a maze around the algorithm.
This... sounds really really contrived
@@giornogiovanna33333 Honestly a force field would have ben easier.
I like when Ryan does his Pitch Meeting for the first film in a multiple series. Because you know eventually he’s going to do the rest of the film. By the time he finishes his Maze Runner pitch meetings, there’s probably going to be more movies and a Disney tv series.
Hey did Producer Guy ever buy Canada with all that Harry Potter money, does anybody know?
Still hoping he does the rest of the Back to the Future series 🥲.
So you got a Back to the Future sequel for me?
Yes, Sir, I do. Remember how Doc did a 180 on knowing about the future? Well, he’s going to get Marty and his girlfriend to go to the future to stop his kids from being arrested.
Wait, why does Doc need to bring them with him?
Well, Marty is going to pretend to be his son.
You’re saying Marty’s son looks identical to his father?
That’s what we’re going with.
Oh, having an identical son is TIGHT!
Hey, say. You ever think George McFly wonders why his son and grandson look exactly like that kid his wife had a crush on in high school?
He just finished it
Just finished reading the book the other day actually, there was a line in it when Thomas got stuck in the maze and they were like “the grieves don’t only come out at night, they always come out at night” grieves are around whenever they like, they just are more common at night.
Hell yeah Maze runner is one most memorable classic fantasy movie
Loved the books! The scorch trials were my favorite, currently halfway through the Fever Code
@@Lezduit586 I started the scorch trials on Wednesday but the first few chapters were pretty intense. I put it down for a few days so that I can be emotionally prepared. The scene with the cranks at the windows has temporarily scared me off
@@Luzura_01 Yeah that was exciting! Just be prepared for a overwhelming amount of plot twists throughout the next books
Only, and Always are the same thing. When it comes to predatory monsters. Like, tigers only eat rabbits, only when there are only rabbits to eat, always. at night.
That joke near the start about "they sit around naming stuff" has to be a dig at Ryan's own "How X got their names" series, right?
3:43 I laughed to the point of tears at "well why don't they just build a ladder to get to the top of the maze"
God, I love Ryan's pitch meetings.
"Ooooooo" :>
I think Ryan's take on "Donnie Darko" would be mind blowing.
If I could, I would watch Pitch Meetings until I die. These NEVER get old, EVER. NOT EVER.
Yeah, yeah, yeah! 😂
Same I put on pitch meeting playlist before bed.
Goodnight.
Well, you can! Just don't eat or drink anything while you watch. Simple!
@@nagoranerides3150 ooh, telling people to die in a polite and family friendly way is TIGHT

I would love to see pitch meetings for the next two movies in the trilogy!
We are steps away from a Hunger Games pitch meeting and it is killing me.
There is already a hunger games pitch meeting
@@byrdqamar36 Oooooyoooo!
There has been one for four years now
The very last part is my favorite part. It's actually brilliant. Thank you for 'smooth-cheek-Ryan-with-a-female-voice'.
1:16 "Do these kids sit around naming things all day?"
Maybe they work in a company called The Place Where Words for Things are Decided.
Talk about a major plot twist, the maze is in fact what that company uses to hire new employees.
2:50 _The Continuing._
That's useful, I'm keeping that.
Another vote for an Underworld Pitch Meeting!
I have never gone from "kinda enjoying this movie" to "I regret watching this movie" so quickly as I did with the Maze Runner
I loved it right up until the ending, which completely sucked out all the wind. Turns out the books are much better, and James Dashner has the distinction of being the only YA author I actually enjoy, unless you count Harry Turtledove's Crosstime Traffic series.
@@jaffarebellion292 if the books were better, then I don't want to see the movies.
The books were absolute trash, and not just because author kept saying "lifeless body" to mean an unconscious person. The plot for the second book was contrived and could easily have been resolved if the characters had just talked, and book three was forgettable.
Maybe read the first book because it was easily the best of the trilogy, but I don't think it should be high on your list.
@AnotherLinuxDude The only book I absolutely despised was the third. It had a few good moments going for it, but as a complete story, the whole thing just dragged. I really enjoyed the first and did find myself getting into the second, but the third just killed the trilogy for me. Undoing Gally's death was where I think I just checked out. There were issues with the second, but the characters were developed in interesting ways and the worldbuilding, while requiring a hefty suspension of disbelief, was good enough to get the job done, and didn't take away from my investment in the characters.
TL;DR: I reallycenjoyed the books up until the third, which had its moments but ultimately couldn't resist descending into utter stupidity.
if i remember the plot of the movies well enough.... nothing makes sense once you learn ANYTHING
supposedly some people made the virus and infected people, for population control? and then after losing TOO MANY people. they decide to spend GAZILLION dollars and INFINITE man power + hours to build the maze and its mutant freaks to help create a cure/immune person? like ummm what the fuck?
yeah, i enjoyed the first book. the concept is cool, but once you're out of the maze what's the point you know? i was there for the maze, not the other stuff. funnily enough I watched cinamasins first and it's sin stuff, watched the movie, then I read the book. strange order but made the book pretty cool with all the additional context.
"I love a good vial of liquid" has me rolling. Gonna find a way to shoehorn that into every conversation I have from now on
I really hope Ryan has ownership of this channel. He is uniquely hilarious.
It's worth noting that if you click through to the channel page, it still says "Pitch Meeting by Screen Rant"
@@Tera_GX that’s disappointing
@@Tera_GX bummer. I hoped he had escaped.
He has his own channel where he posts different skits though. It’s amazing. It’s just his name - Ryan George, in case anyone doesn’t know about it and wants to check it out!
Not how it works. Even if Ryan himself pitched the Pitch Meeting to Screen Rant, the name, format will always belong to Screen Rant. An idividual would have to pay hefty dough to own it.
Ok as somebody who read the first 2 books, you HAVE to do the sequel, it gets even more insane
You should definitely read the death cure! There are also two prequel books that expand on the world building! They’re actually both really good!
@@billandbraden1439 ok, I'll definitely consider it, its been a very long time since I read em, so I don't EXACTLY remember where it left off but I'm sure I could figure it out
Man, you are awesome! The newer "hey shut up" bit really makes me laugh every time. Another excellent video!
I don't know if doing less Pitch Meeting changed something in Ryan, but this Pitch Meeting was on another level!!
Imagine how Producer Guy reacts when he finds out how drastically different The Scorch Trials and The Death Cure books are from the movies
I didn't know that. Worth a read if you're not
@@SnifferSock yes, the books are way better and not even close to the story line in the movies
@@SnifferSock I read this series for the first time at 27 & really enjoyed it. It's a compelling series & I'd say the books are much better than the movies (though I like both). Also I lied how the prequels continued to add to the story & change your understanding of the events of other books.
Mazerunner series such a big part of my pre-teen/early teenage childhood. This coverage makes me very, very happy. Even if the solid map makes no sense; I always assumed it had a moving part underneath
I'm just gonna watch this pitch again a second time. Too precious to watch once 👏
I’ve been waiting so long for this pitch meeting, THANK YOU🎉
Go touch some grass

How to get out of any maze. Extent your hand (either). Place it on the wall. Keep walking and don't take your hand off the wall until you get out.
It's stated in the book that this doesn't work in the maze because it just leads back to one of the other sections
Solid pitch meeting as always. Its crazy how many names there are for everything in this universe. I would love to see a pitch meeting for The Core if you are ever able to do so!
That reminds me of an old story, "The Nine Billion Names of God".
CORE! CORE! CORE! CORE!
This is probably one of the funniest videos in this channel. A dozen times I had to go back 10s to watch the joke again, just to really savor it. Really well done man! :D
'Let me get off of that thing'
Yes! My favourite line is back!
Mac and me pitch meeting please
I swear, between these and The Critical Drinker, I am so forewarned against my own plot holes. From a craftsman's point of view, these are actually extremely helpful.
Makes writing a novel pretty easy. Barely an inconvenience.
Why are you watching a racist like Critical Drinker?
What I like about the Drinker is that not so long ago he said he was doing a film. Criticism is easy, but putting yourself out there and expose your craft with best logic you can manage is another thing. Even if he fails and do something terrible is something to admire
Thanks for the tip. I haven't watched any of TCD, so I queued up a few. I also like Screen Junkies "Honest Trailers".
2:18 that caught me off guard 😂
You should do Wanted. Watched it again recently and it seems like a perfect candidate for a pitch meeting
Bending bullets is tight if I say so myself...
@@ibunkatraining "The little things" is a really good theme.
Please do National Treasure 1 and 2. I feel like you could pick those apart
One of your best!!! The more of these you do, the more I'm happy I make it to the cinema only once or twice a year.
This one was so well written, great work.
I would like to see a Pitch Meeting for a Stanley Kubrick movie like 2001: A Space Odyssey or Dr Strangelove
It would fun to see one of these for an actual really good movie. Other possibilities would be Stalker, or Clockwork Orange. Have a seventies greenscreen office. Writer guy: "and then he kills her with a big plastic penis."
"Oh big plastic penises are tight!"
My question: How has he not done a Pitch Meeting for "Picard"???
I would like to see a Pitch Meeting for everything.
"Oh, it must have been hard for those kids to come up with so many random names for stuff."
"Actually super easy, barely an inconvenience."
[CUT TO the Place Where Words For Things Are Decided]
If I recall correctly, in the book Newt climbs to the top of the wall, sees there's no escape and jumps off the edge. He barely survived. that's all they had to say to explain it. But no Newt was all “The Vines don't go to the top” as if they couldn't build a ladder.
Yes and also in the books the maze is underground & so there actually is a roof on top of the maze. The sky is actually a massive screen meant to fool them into thinking they're outside. I believe they also programmed it to seem taller than it actually was so the boys wouldn't even try to climb it.
Making it early to a Pitch Meeting for once is tight!
Edit: the new sound (3:35) kills me 😂
"I'm gonna need you to suspend your entire disbelief on that one.
All of it?
All of it."
Sometimes actually MOST times I look forward to the Pitch Meeting of the movie rather than the movie itself !!
Well done Ryan(s) 💎
5:33 That "Mmm" with that expression 10/10 😂

I really liked this book series. I sure hope the movie adaptations don't stray so far from the original plot that it becomes unrecognizable and everybody wonders why things are the way that they are because the set-ups no longer line up with the pay-offs.
3:39 is the funniest single second in this Pitch Meeting! 🤣🤣
Outta nowhere and amazing!
You predicted the future with this one; "do these kids just sit around naming things", short answer is yes, and invent slang that makes zero sense. Sadly pretty accurate in hindsight.
"Do these kids just sit around all day naming things?" GOLD!

I just finished the audio book, and I gotta say, I understand changing things because they wouldn't translate well from page to screen or to cut down on runtime, but it seems like the writers intentionally changed things and cut out short, simple explanations for the sole purpose of having the movie make less sense than the book.
That outro 🤣. Ryan is a creative genius
With all the superhero movies I'd love to see a Pitch Meeting for Mystery Men
Watching Pitch Meetings, then watching Honest Trailers, maybe Cinema Sins Everything Wrong With if I’m up for it, then How it Should Have Ended… I genuinely feel like I watched and completely understood what happened in the movie without watching it, and in much less time!!!!! Super easy… barely an inconvenience!
Man this takes me back. I loved the Maze Runner
book.
Isn't that like all YA movies. The book works, but the film is horrible?
I just read the book a couple months ago for the first time, and I watched the first movie for the first time today. honestly, part of the problem I was having with the adaptation was how quickly things moved. for one, they completely left out the telepathy, idk if it comes up later or not at all but I was really excited for that scene because I wanted to see how Dylan would act it out, since he's generally amazing in dramatic moments like that, but they completely glazed over it. also, I imagined the grievers as much more machine-like, I mean they are partly the same but these grievers feel too organic, too monstery. they got the gross fleshy part right, but I always imagined that grievers would have more methodical movements. also, in the book, grievers would easily have known Thomas was hiding in the vines, and Minho ran off long before Thomas got the idea to string up Alby to protect him. that was why Minho was so impressed with Thomas, because Thomas didn't give up, and still tried to save Alby. also, idk if it was just Ryan misunderstanding what was going on when the grievers stung or if that is actually what is happening in the movie, but the grievers don't give you the flare, they just cause you to get your memory back.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that, by rushing things, the movie created far more plot holes than if it had kept things the way they were.
@@winchesters4life34 They also cut Newt’s limp, which has a great significance in his character.
I love these! Even for movies I've never seen and have no intention of ever seeing, still so funny.
Same 😂😂😂
